The company is focusing on extending market access through ongoing technology transitions, particularly in advanced dispense, vertical wire, and thermo-compression bonding (TCB).
Introduction of new products like advanced dispense capabilities scheduled for September at SEMICON Taiwan, highlighting ongoing R&D efforts.
Vertical wire technology is on track with initial high-volume production expected in fiscal 2026, driven by demand for high-bandwidth, low-power memory applications such as mobile HBM and energy-efficient DRAM.
The company emphasizes the importance of fluxless thermo-compression (FTC) solutions, supporting large customers in mass production and planning to ship initial FTC systems for high-power HBM by the end of 2025.
Management sees these technological advancements as key to capturing market share and supporting long-term growth despite near-term industry headwinds.
